Enna

Hiya, I’m Enna and I’m currently studying Psychology with Cognitive Neuroscience. I’ll be blogging all about my life as a University of Leicester student, and all the cool things that go on inside AND outside of the Uni. Expect to see blogs all about budgeting, how to join in on the Uni fun, and some of my top student hacks!

So, to kick off my first ever vlog, I decided to talk about something very important. And no, unfortunately, it is not about Christmas! I’m talking about the dreaded January exams…which are fast approaching us (not that I want to freak you guys out or anything…) In this vlog, I decided to share with you […]

Okay so this may be a slightly too packed day in the life…but the point still stands – there’s so much to do in Leicestershire! Over the Summer I got the great opportunity to work alongside some UOL, DMU and Loughborough students, the Pathways East Midlands team plus Revolution Viewing on this promotional video. […]

Happy 1st of December guys! It’s official. The Christmas countdown is on. Although this is meant to be the happiest time of the year, it can also be quite stressful with deadlines looming and the dreaded January exams around the corner. But, remember that it is completely okay to take a break from […]

So, it’s been a couple of months since University has started, which means that a whole host of deadlines has probably passed and you’re just starting to get your marks back for them. I got my first essay back a few days ago and let me tell you…I was not impressed with myself at […]

I love the University of Leicester for many reasons. One of the big reasons I do, is due to the support you get as a student who has a specific learning disability. But before I get into all that, let’s rewind back to a few years.. So, I’ve always struggled with handwriting…even since […]

So, in October, I celebrated my 21st birthday, and as tradition, I wrote out a list of 21 things I’ve learnt in those years of living. I thought it may be a good idea to write another list…but University style, as there’s so much I’ve learnt from the past year and a half of attending […]

So I have just finished up my third week of Second year and let me tell you something…I feel just as lost and confused as I did at the start of last year. With things like deadlines, trying to find a society to fit in with, and trying to keep up with the recommended reading […]

If I could go back in time to Enna’s first day, to give her one piece of advice, it would be this: GET YOURSELF ORGANISED. AND FAST. Because you see, I didn’t think the jump from A-Levels to University was going to be THAT big. But, once again (if you’ve seen from my […]

I started being interested in Psychology at a young age after reading books like Catcher in the Rye and Perks of Being a Wallflower – both of which have leading characters whom suffer from some sort of trauma or mental illness. Being a film lover too, movies such as Along Came a Spider, Prisoners and […]

I know, I know…personal statements can be daunting. It took me around 5 different drafts, 3 different teachers and 8 different friends to “perfect” my personal statement. I started writing it long before my UCAS application was due as it really does take a lot of time and effort. Many people do not think […]
